growing up i found myself
in the tub…at the back
with sis and little brother
in front and i often
wondered…but why the fuss
with mom trying to wash us
all arms and legs and did
we really get clean but
after all, I mean, really
i was so glad when mom
finally decided i was too
big for the space i
was in and subtracted me
from the equation of
bath time times three and
i wondered why forever
until i had kids of my own
and it is so much easier
to have one bath for three
instead of a balancing act
of one, two, three and the
evening finds space for
alone time when they dream
to wonder why all the fuss

Yes, I do remember that the water never seemed to stay warm for very long, especially with three of us in it. 🙂

Oh yes, I remember sharing a bath with my sister, one of us always complaining if we had to sit at the plug end!
